Speaking of food...Flo's Hot Dogs - anyone been??

They were the runner up in my Rachel Ray magazine this month for best hot dog in the entire country!!  I'm always so proud when Maine is featured in national media, even if it's just for hot dogs  :o).  Their relish looked amazing - it was brown with some molasses or something in it (typically I don't like relish but I think I'd love this).  I think we're going to have to stop there this summer on our way to my parents' cottage...yummm.

  • You know what, I've never been.  Drove by there 2x a day quite a while for work too.  There's always a ton of cars lined up.  It's pretty much a hole in the wall from the outside, but they do get rave reviews.

  • I find this shocking.  I went once when my family spent summers in York.  Everyone RAVED about this place.  I thought it was vile.  As in, "fly paper hanging from the ceiling with dead flies on it" vile.

    They MUST have made some improvements.  I am always excited when national media pick Maine places to feature too.  I hope Flo's lives up to the hype!

    Keep me posted when you go.  I am anxious to hear about it!

  • I like them, DH is "meh" on them.  It's a very unique taste.  If you get them the recommended way, they come with relish, mayo, and celery salt. 

    They had a branch in Sanford a while back but that closed.  I went to the one in Wells 3 or 4 years ago and it was a dive (with a long line of customers).  The waiting area was I guess some kind of enclosed porch or something weird like that because anyone over about 6' tall couldn't stand fully upright.

  • hmm, I haven't had them, but I'm a toss up as to whether I'd go for one.  I like mine with yellow mustard and relish.  Nothing fancy!

  • I haven't been but I've heard they are good. It isn't a fancy place , but I'm ok eating at a dive if the food is good and it's clean. . I will say that there is probably a  bit of a bias (although I love when ME or SC is featured in something, like Alton Brown saying SC's Rocket Dogs are the best hehe) since RR is up here frequently.
  • I have been once and thought it was okay. It is definitely a bit of a dive and a little intimidating since you need to know how to order correctly. We got help from the people in line in front of us.

  • DH and his family love them... I like them, but I prefer red hot dogs.. their mustard is really good though!  They also have a stand at the Kittery Trading Post.
